Testimonials
"Thank you for your infectious enthusiasm and your cheery smile, even on a cold winter day when you were stencilling your 120th decorative cross on the East wall of the church! I shall make sure in the years ahead that I come up with some ideas to get you back to add more beautiful artwork to the church which you have beautified so well." Father Nicholas France, Catholic Dean of Jersey.
"Louisa has a gift for putting colours into context, which with her innovative painting techniques has produced some wonderful decoration in my home. She has also done some beautiful murals for me, the leaping blue marlin in my poolhouse are fantastic! It is very useful to have someone so talented that you can leave her to decide what should go where, leave the keys and know that when you get back you will have a beautiful room to enjoy. Mick compliments this with high quality woodwork. They are an excellent team, I highly recommend them and will certainly use them for anything I do in my home." Michael Kearns, Jersey
"Louisa has transformed my childrens' rooms, she has been a real inspiration and was a delight to work with. I can't wait to start on our other rooms." Anthea Gallichan, Jersey
"We thought that an aeroplane theme would be great for the boy's playroom and Louisa gave us the idea for the Red Arrows. The boys love it and can't wait to show their friends when they come round. The artwork is fantastic, the sky effect and the smoke behind the planes are incredible! The playroom has been transformed from an ordinary room to a fabulous feature room that we all love." Louisa Bracken Smith, Jersey.
"Now that the project at St Thomas has been successfully concluded I wanted to thank you for the significant part that you played in realising the scheme. I found your practical approach invigorating, enabling us to freely discuss and develop ideas without the preciousness that can sometimes exist in both artists and dare I say, architects! The Church benefited from this approach, as we both were able to discard ideas that were less successful to enable those that worked to succeed. As the project developed I very much appreciated your role as I came to rely on you as my eyes on the island. This greatly helped us overcome the difficulty of working from a distance and I remain in your debt for that. The quality of Artizen's finished pieces within the building is stunning and it is marvelous to see traditional techniques of Trompe L'Oeil, gilding and scumbling being executed to meet both budget and program in such a professional and accomplished manner. I am grateful that we have been able to achieve such a strong working relationship and I look forward to it developing in our future projects. Many thanks." Gerard Smith, Smith and Roper Architects
